Kaia Gerber is devastated after splitting from Austin Butler, while he’s already moved on with someone new

Kaia Gerber is reportedly struggling to cope after her split from actor Austin Butler, with sources claiming she has been “crying in silence” since their breakup in December 2024. The model and beauty mogul, who spent three years with the Dune star, is said to be heartbroken as Butler has already moved on with a new woman.

According to Life & Style, the 22-year-old is finding it difficult to let go of what was “by far the most meaningful relationship she’s ever had.” An insider revealed, “She’s young, so three years for her is a lot. This breakup has hit her hard.” Despite her pain, Gerber’s family is rallying around her, assuring her that “this too shall pass.”

However, the wounds are still fresh, and moving forward has been anything but easy. The source added, “She’s hurting a lot right now, but she will get over this and go on to have plenty more love in her life.”

Meanwhile, Butler appears to have found solace elsewhere. Reports suggest he is now seeing a woman named Alice, whom he met while filming Caught Stealing in New York City. According to an insider, they “exchanged contacts and are still close.”

The source further claimed that Butler, 33, had been seeking something different as his relationship with Gerber began to unravel. “He wanted peace with someone outside the industry. He wants a quieter, more serious life now,” the insider revealed.

Gerber has remained tight-lipped about the split, but sources close to her suggest she is finding it difficult to watch Butler move on so quickly. While she navigates the heartbreak, her inner circle is making sure she focuses on healing.

As the dust settles, it remains to be seen whether Gerber will address the breakup publicly or if she will choose to suffer in silence.
